Debapriya Sen

Economics Bulletin, 2002, vol. 4, issue 6, 1-6

Abstract: A Cournot oligopoly with at least three firms is considered, where one of the firms has a cost-reducing innovation. A general version of royalty contract is proposed, and it is shown that this contract enables the innovator firm to earn the monopoly profit with the reduced cost.
